Ok... not knowing anything about the product other than what's on their website... it seems truly cool.
don't know if I'd call it hot, but I do like it and wish I had a use for it.
While I "applaud" Ecodomo's efforts to create a leather product that is slightly more sustainable, I am still sick that this is even posted. The leather industry is not only harmful to the environment because of the toxins used to tan the hides but also to humans--those same toxins are carcinogenic. Most leather products are processed in India, where there are few regulatory measures to protect leather workers. Clearly, the leather industry also exploits animals (I will suppress my vegan rage). The amount of resources (water, food, fuel to transport) used to raise leather-producing animals is mind-boggling. Creating a demand for Ecodomo creates a demand for leather in general. I'm sure Lexus is looking into Ecodomo to trim the new Lexus hybrid vehicles....
Thanks SkippyB - exactly what I would have said.
Unless they have come up with some really good anti-stain technology I would imagine the floor ending up with some strange patches all over it from picking up spills.
There are some nice rubber floors for kitchens which are cushioning and functional/easy to clean. Leather tiles are probably better suited for walls.
A lot of tile manufacturers make porcelain and ceramic tiles that mimic the look of leather.
India? I thought they had sacred cows???
Ditto SkippyB.
Also, wouldn't feet scuff the leather awfully fast? My leather jacket scuffed up pretty fast and I didn't walk on that!
Well said SkippyB!
